Decide to Feel Good - New Year, New You
Gut Health
"All disease begins in the gut," according to Hippocrates, the father of medicine. And 2,500 years later he has proven to be correct.
The body contains 10 times more bacterial cells than human cells, and a vast majority of them live in the gut or gastrointestinal system. When functioning correctly, this bacteria is a major proponent to our overall well-being and facilitates communication for
-Healthy Immunity
-Energy production
-Mood management
-Food cravings
-Hormone production
-Digestive regularity
-And much more
For as powerful the gut is, it is equally fragile. Numerous factors disrupt the gut’s delicate balance and in turn, negatively affect our health. Some of these include excessive use of medications, chemical exposure, and a poor diet.
Join us at our next event, "Decide to Feel Good - New Year, New You," on Wednesday, Jan. 15 at 6:15 p.m. EST to learn more about how taking care of your gut can set you on the right track in 2020.
A few things to consider:
- There are 4 billion prescription drugs ingested annually in the United States alone.
- There are 70,000 known chemicals used commercially in the food industry that consumers are in contact with regularly.
- Over 3,000 of these chemicals end up in our food supply.
- Approximately 10,000 chemicals are used to process, preserve and store our food.
- According to the EPA, the air in our homes is now anywhere between 5 times and 100 times more toxic than that of air outdoors. This, too, is due to the chemicals we use regularly.
These are only a few of the many environmental issues that directly affect healthy gut function.
